Kinetic Lighting chooses Elation Artiste DaVinci for Warner Grand Theatre

The historic Warner Grand Theatre in San Pedro, California, near Long Beach, is an art deco venue that is moving into a new era with the help of Kinetic Lighting and Elation Professional’s theatrical-grade Artiste DaVinci LED moving head.

The 1500-seat theatre features a vaudeville-size proscenium stage with T-guided fly system that makes it a venue for concerts, dance performances, multimedia presentations, film screenings and other cultural events.

Kinetic Lighting worked with the Warner Grand and the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs to convert the theatre from conventional lighting to an entirely LED-based system, assisted by Victor Prudeaux, Master Electrician at the theatre. The new lighting package includes Artiste DaVinci LED moving heads, the first moving lights the theatre has ever owned.

Kinetic Lighting project-managed the install, designed a plot, installed, prepped, addressed and programmed the new lights, and provided training on the new fixtures. Other new fixtures in the upgrade include ellipsoidals, battens, par lights and followspots - all LED based - along with a new lighting console. The new moving lights allow fewer lights to be hung for specials.

The lighting upgrade was completed in late November 2019 with a San Pedro City Ballet performance of ‘The Nutcracker’ this past holiday season the first performance using the new gear.
